Abstract
Throughout 2017 and 2018, the Library continued to tweak and improve on our Integrated Collection Management System (ICMS), comprising of Primo, Alma, Adlib, and Rosetta. Whilst catalogue use has markedly risen over the last 6 months, we note there are longstanding issues and user complaints which have yet to be resolved.
These issues cannot be easily or fully addressed by tweaking and configuring our current systems. In October 2018, we presented a strategy to address these long-standing issues: continue to use and capitalise on current systems established but leverage on modern web technologies and cloud architecture to develop compelling digital experiences which meet our readers’ expectations.
The presentation will focus on our Agile approach to researching, designing, building, testing and deploying new user experiences of our catalogues.
